Gabriel of Sedona and his nine-piece Bright & Morning Star Band will be coming to Prescott\'s Watson Lake Park on Sunday, April 30 to perform a Major Outdoor CosmoPop Benefit Concert, benefiting cutting-edge non-profit social service organizations.

The CosmoTeens Band is an eight-piece energetic youth band whose inspiring original music has deep lyrics of social concern that far transcend the ages of these teens and young adults.

Keep those dance shoes strapped on and \"CosmoDance to CosmoPop\" as headlining act Gabriel of Sedona & The Bright & Morning Star Band begins a three to four-hour concert starting at 2:00 P.M.
Gabriel of Sedona, founder of the nonprofit, independent record label Global Change Music, is first and foremost a cutting-edge musical pioneer and magical vocalist of many diverse genres. CosmoPop is a totally unique and new genre of music invented by Gabriel of Sedona that includes all the contemporary mediums with a cosmic influence that captivates your soul. CosmoPop is higher-consciousness music with spiritual vibes and lyrical content addressing many individual and humanitarian issues that incorporates saxophones, trumpet, flute, keyboards, drums, bass, background vocalists, rhythm guitar, and percussion with Gabriel\'s lead vocals. Gabriel calls CosmoPop \"spiritually hip vocal music.\"
At one of his CosmoPop Concerts, you will be allured by his CosmoMystic style and the next song you hear may be CosmoRock or CosmoJazz. He can take your consciousness from this planet to another planet to other universes in just one song. Come hear for yourself. His lyrical content identifies with every avenue of individual and social consciousness. The sounds of chant and mantra in his songs express both the sufferings of life and the courage of perseverance and hope, which leaves every listener with a new vision for their future.
